Re: For the "Greens"

With that in mind would you guys post what your profession, education and experience are. I want to post this thread to Twitter to hammer home that point. I wish you good luck for the effort, but from my past experience with those type of people it will be hard to even make them understand that the...

Re: For the "Greens"

Check the attachment. The colored bar segments was from M&W and the grey was the info on buffering that I added. It gives quite a different truth, but convincing the laymen about it is a whole odyssey. I still remember in a dinner few years ago arguing for one hour with two green brain ladies that ...

Re: New: Two High School Students In Chicago Build Polywell

What ever happened with these gentlemen? According to their facebook page they completed their attempts in September 2018. On August 18th we ran our polywell for the first time! Results on electron detection were inconclusive due to a faulty Langmuir probe circuit, but we still detected a 0.18V jum...

Re: Germany investing 1 billion in fusion

Germany economy is going downhill. They choose to close Nuclear production and depend completely from cheap Russia gas, and since the moment they lost this supply they also lost any competitive edge they had. The last 12 month has seen a massive migration of companies involved in chemical manufactur...

Re: Vortex rocket engine: lighter, more efficient, more reusable

SpaceX recently ran Raptor 3 at a sustained 350 bar. Not bad! Yes, and it's an amazing engineering achievement. I doubt they will be able to improve more without some new and radical discovery in metallurgy and material composition, and so far I do not see any in the various publications. If they c...

I didn't bother clicking on 'buy a fusion energy generator'...
A pity, it was in offer for only 9.999,99 US$ with a free set of frying pans :mrgreen:

Re: Kronos Energy - simulations only?

News of a 30 Tesla magnet. For some reason all links are dead outside the US. Can someone please have a look and share whats going on In the news release there is no pictures nor it mention the existence of a prototype. If they indeed had built a working 30 Tesla Magnet they would not need to hire ...

Surprised I didn't see a thread here on these guys, there is now a 10x cheaper battery (but terrible density) for grids and homes
That's because they have also a terrible efficiency (under or around 50% if I remember correctly) and extremely slow to recharge.

Re: LK-99

I have been digging everything I could on LK-99 since the last 2 weeks. While I am still not 100% convinced there are more and more replications coming online every day now. If it proves true the real disruption will be to have identified a new working route for HTSC, and just imagine what we could ...

Re: Avalanche Energy

I hope they will publish more actual working data on their feedthrough design. I can't stop stressing what an important technological achievement this is if it does indeed work in a stable steady state at 200/300 Kv as advertised.

Re: youtube Polywell critique with response from EMC2!

Yes, I get suspicious with coincidences. Perhaps he was fishing for news? Yes, suspicious indeed. It is almost like he was put up to it, and didn't even make a good job of it. That was exactly my feeling when I said in April that there was no need from Matt to come out suddenly with such a video. M...

Re: EM Drive

That is disappointing. For skeptics it is unsurprising. There is too much good news these days so I am not starved for hopium. I am still willing not to show any skepticism and to oversee this as a simple delay if all they need is more time to revise their setup. But, should they start to ask money...
